(Keywords: compat)

STR:

  1. With a Windows desktop device with a touch screen
  2. Inspect these in the console.

"ontouchmove" in document
"createTouch" in document

Expected result:

They should be false.

Actual result:

They returns true.

Note:

Chrome returns false on both. It's very likely they are wrong and Firefox is right, since Firefox does give out touch events when the user touches the screen while Chrome does not -- BUT this may be a compat issue for Firefox since there are websites rely on the said statement to detect touch support (and stop listen to mouse events when a device is classified as a touch device.)

Isn't this a dup of bug 1412485.
